The Murder of Roger Ackroyd | Agatha Christie

Pickpick

Damn, this is so late. Probably the only book that I could read with even more enthusiasm even after the spoilers, for that exquisite writing 💯 THAT ending 😍

Hands down, best work of Agatha Christie ❤ I owe a formal apology for looking over this, after all this time 🙊

What an entry in the geo-politics field! ❤ I'm fairly new to this perspective and it's so informative.
"In peacetime, most of the world is getting ready for war." A funny world we live in ???

Facts I learnt from this book:
1. I'm never gonna see the world in the same way as before, after reading this.
2. There is an ocean of stuff to learn even if we think we know something about the #world.
3. This book is goddamn awesome. Just read it.

"Perhaps the struggle is all we have because the god of history is an atheist and nothing about his world is meant to be."
Books like these should be fed into the school system to spark debate against #racism. It's high time people know it's melanin ffs! Each sentence is like a bullet and it hits hard. Quick read too ? worth it ?
Damn, I need some light hearted books ?

"But here God didn't come. We were all on our own".
If this doesn't move you and scar you emotionally, I don't know what will. It's a horror story beyond anything, and also a character study of this surviving father ?
Maus 2 continues the story and focuses on the brutality of the holocaust in agonizing detail, gripping, terrifying and eye opening.

Simple yet powerful 🖤 The comic style was vibrant with life and gave way to a movie experience. Although we have known a lot about the holocaust, reading a personal story with such emotions is haunting even now. A time when humanity lost it's path 💔
#Maus : A survivor's tale. Another classic experience ❤

Half way through this book and even though I knew what I was getting into, it's still haunting: We humans deserve nature's fury coz we are indebt to it forever. The balance is inevitable. This is not for the faint hearted 💔

1984 | George Orwell

"The primary aim of modern warfare is to use up the products of the machine without raising the general standard of living" ?

George Orwell is a goddamn genius of his time ❤ Imagine writing all this in early 1949 and it still somehow resembles our reality. A timeless masterpiece - #1984

It took me 2 months to slog through the first 200 pages, but just an hour to finish the remaining 150 odd pages. The pieces were carefully placed, sophisticated yet painstakingly dragged along, but the ending was more than worth it ❤
And that proves why it is an all time classic! Exploring moral choices is something I always love, and the perspective shown here is gut punching. Stick to it and you won't regret it 💯👍

A great read indeed ❤ although I must say, the condescending tone didn't help during the first half, and it may definitely rub some people off in the wrong way ?

From skinner pigeon experiments to evolution, an open mind will take on the courage to believe in the more weirder but beautiful science, than to put in his words, the more "improbable" conclusion that is GOD. ?? worth it ???

Dan Brown is always about mashing ideologies and thoughts with a compelling thriller storyline, with more emphasis on the thoughts alone ❤😝 and it's always a pleasure to witness such thoughts and learn from them.
Sincerely, an admirer 😇
